One of the other OSS projects I am involved in is Sakai (www.sakaiproject.org
), which is a 'Collaborative Research, Teaching and Learning
environment'. There is a UX project (http://bugs.sakaiproject.org/confluence/display/UX/UX+Working+Group
) currently in progress what contains an in-browser portal container
with the ability to host gadgets and widgets (light, flat gadgets). It
will have an embedded Shindig in the next month or so. I am not
directly involved in the implementation of the UX project, but I am
involved in the back end implementation. The project is used in Higher
Education world wide, but could (and is used) for other purposes,
research networks. License is ECL2 which is almost identical to ASFL2.
The modifications allow California Schools to participate in the
project. (I am not a lawyer, but Google will find the reference).
Please feel free to take what you want.

Hey all -
Was wondering if anyone is aware of any OSS projects or anything out
there along those lines for more sophisticated containers than the
ones in the sample code? I'm thinking igoogle-like things such drag-
and-drop, being able to maximize a gadget, and such. Surely there is
some effort to create an oss container like that?
Would something like this be outside the scope of "Shindig
proper" (and more appropriate for its own little google code
project) or welcome as an addition to Shindig itself?
